World's ugliest weld

This was supposed to be a turn signal mount for the CX500 that I was building out of aluminum C-channels. I tried to braze two pieces together using an oxygen / MAPP gas torch. Unfortunately I seem to have used too much heat and it looks like I just might have welded it instead of brazed it. This joint didn't hold up too well, so it's time for Plan B: come up with something I can hold together with sheet metal screws.
